STAR WARS™ Battlefront II (Classic, 2005)

Un clasico para todo amante de Star Wars, sin duda el mejor

Un clasico que todavia tiene vigencia

Nice shooter in Star Wars Universe! Cool maps from legendary movies. Another respect for company about battles from 3-5 episodes

[h1]El pináculo de la guerra galáctica clásica[/h1] Si el primero era bueno, esta secuela es simplemente legendaria y la razón por la que muchos seguimos amando Star Wars. Lo que lo hace superior es la inclusión de las batallas espaciales, que son increíbles, y la posibilidad de jugar por fin con los Jedi y otros héroes icónicos. La campaña El Diario de la 501 es fantástica porque te cuenta la historia desde la perspectiva de un soldado imperial, lo que le da un toque mucho más épico y personal a la trama. Es un juego que corre en cualquier PC actual y se ve de maravilla para los años que tiene, ofreciendo un contenido inmenso con el modo Conquista Galáctica, que es peligrosamente adictivo. Además, la comunidad de mods sigue vivísima, permitiendo que el juego se sienta fresco incluso décadas después. Si buscas la experiencia definitiva de Battlefront con la mejor jugabilidad y una banda sonora que te pone los pelos de punta, este título es un 10/10 obligatorio en tu biblioteca, si eres fan de Star Wars.

(Played the heck out of it on my PSP, so ignore my time played) ✅ One of the best large‑scale Star Wars shooters ever made ✅ Massive battles that still feel epic even today ✅ Space combat + ground combat in one game (rare even now) ✅ Tons of maps, modes, and replayability ✅ Galactic Conquest is still peak Star Wars strategy-lite ✅ Class system is simple but extremely fun ✅ Modding community keeps the game alive ❌ Must use fixes/mods for proper resolution support ❌ AI can be brain‑dead at times ❌ Some maps are horribly balanced ❌ Space battles feel floaty until you get used to them ❌ Dated animations and janky movement ❌ No proper single‑player story outside of 501st Journal Even with its age, Battlefront II (2005) is still the gold standard for Star Wars shooters. It’s fun, chaotic, nostalgic, and honestly better than most modern attempts.

Intelligence was absent

One of my favourite childhood games, I first played it when I was around 6 years old, and even though I was too young to understand english and the game itself, I had a fun time any time I played the game. I never got past the first mission so that was the only part of the game that I truly had nostalgia for; it really did feel surreal to fight on Mygeeto again, this time capable of finishing the mission. So, without any nostalgia bias for the rest of the game past the first mission, I think I can judge the game from an objective point of view. The story, even though is mostly delivered in the form of voice overs over gameplay footage, is really effective. The voice acting is good and the actor makes the player understand what it means to be a clone and to go through all these battles spanning decades. The pain in his voice perfectly captures the feeling of going from fighting alongside the jedi, to slaughtering and betraying them. It is incredible how well the story is told in a game that doesn't even have cutscenes or named characters. It has something for both fans of the original trilogy or the prequels. The gameplay was pretty good, too. You can switch between first and third person. There are different classes of clone/stormtroopers, each of them having different weapons. You can go from snipers, to rocket launchers or shotguns. There is also an engineer class that can repair utilities around the map and another trooper that has a jetpack. For me, the best part of the gameplay was when I could transform in jedi. Ki-Adi-Mundi, Mace Windu, Anakin, Obi-Wan, Yoda; the game has a lot of fun characters to play with. Their gameplay is fast and satisfying, some can force push and some throw their sabers, making for extremely fun combat. If there is one thing I am mixed on about this game, that is the spaceships missions. While the gameplay and controls are tight and satisfying, most of the missions are long and too demanding. I found the last spaceship mission especially frustrating, since I had to finish multiple tasks before a 10 minute timer runs out. The mission took me a couple of tries. There is also a large variety of ships, each with their own type of weapons, making for a lot of unique playstyles. As I said, the spaceship gameplay was fine by itself, it was just not executed as well as the trooper missions. The graphics are alright, I would say the hold up very well, they don't feel ugly to look at by no means. The soundtrack is also pretty good, including many iconic songs from the movie series. I haven't played too much multiplayer but it seems fun, I just don't think the game still has that much of a playerbase 20 years after its release. I could be wrong though, since I have only played one match, so take this with a grain of salt; I am making this review more about the singleplayer experience: so, is the full price fair if you only want to experience the campaign and are not that interested in the multiplayer, like myself? No, not really. The story is no longer than 10 hours and 10 bucks is kinda expensive for a 20 year old game if you are only searching for a story-driven experience. However, I bought it on sale for about 3 bucks and I can definitely say that it was more than worth it. Overall, 2005's Star Wars Battlefront II has a little something for every fan of the franchise; I would say a must play if you are looking for fun combat and an interesting, albeit somewhat short story. 9/10

dead game filled with 45 year old balding union workers

Alright! So, this game is a masterpiece directly from 2005. I wasn’t even around when this game originally came out and I didn’t even start playing it until 2024 when the classic collection came out. But of course this right here is the original and I mainly bought it because of the original bad reviews on the classic collection. But so far this original version does not disappoint. It’s incredible in every single aspect. It has a great modding community online as well and it’s just the perfect Star Wars simulator in my opinion.
